Adelaide Crows vs St Kilda Saints Preview

Is this the year for Crows fans?

After multiple seasons of ‘we’ve got the cattle to make a splash in finals’ ringing through their ears, Adelaide’s recruiting team moved swiftly after last year’s 15th-place failure.

They’ve added Alex Neale-Bullen (Melb), Isaac Cumming (GWS) and James Peatling (GWS) to a side boasting Jordan Dawson, Izak Rankine and up-and-coming Jake Soligo.

The Saints, who finished three spots above the Crows, similarly have something to prove under the second iteration of the Ross Lyon era.

Rowan Marshall and Jack Sinclair have both been deemed fit to play after interrupted pre-seasons, but their forward 50 will take a pounding with Max King, Dan Butler and Liam Henry. Having defeated the Saints 13 times from their last 15 encounters, it should be cut and dry for the Crows.
